You're right, as the Ubi support said, the simple answer is that it's not Rayman 4.Raymanarenaps2 wrote:Rayman Origins can't be Rayman 4.

Re: Sequel to Rayman 3 (Petition for Rayman 4)
And if you pay attention to some of the game's plot elements, what little they had, then you'd come to the conclusion that it'd have to at least take place after Rayman 1 and 2:Raymanarenaps2 wrote:Sorry for the late reply, on a kinda dead thread but here are my thoughts on the subject.
Rayman Origins can't be Rayman 4. It was just a jump back in time to the first game. You can tell just by playing it. Dispite any claims the develepers might have made regarding Origins being Rayman 4. I don't even know if they did make any claims, but if they did, Just play the first world, you'l see.
- The existence or knoweldge of DarkRay. Polokus/Bubble Dreamer explicitly mentions how he was created by Mr. Dark:
Bubble me! Rayman's evil clone! What a nightmare you were! Still single? Well, you are soooo ugly. Blame it on Mr. Dark! You ARE on my side though...GULP, right DarkRay...!
- Polokus/Bubble Dreamer is awake and is friends with the heroes, something that wouldn't be the case if Rayman hadn't woken him, given how Rayman doesn't know who Polokus is in Rayman 2.
- The Magician betraying the heroes and being a Mr Dark fanboy, and later multiplying into the Dark Teensies in Legends, who end up stranded on a distant planetoid.
- There's probably more in the beta script, which granted isn't canon (for what canon's worth in Rayman), but it should pretty much make it clear what the intention of the developers were.
Re: Sequel to Rayman 3 (Petition for Rayman 4)
Would be more convincing for Ubisoft to make a sequel to Rayman 3, if there was a fund-raiser, where fans donate money for this petition, which is, if Ubisoft agrees, then sent to Ubisoft for creating the game? That would make it possible for Ubisoft to first-hand see the profit they could make from making the game. Is this something that actually can be realized?

If you raise like 10 million dollars, maybe...?

Re: Sequel to Rayman 3 (Petition for Rayman 4)
A great idea would be if Ubisoft themselves made their own "Kickstarter"-like campaign where the money can go to the funding of a new Rayman 3 sequel, but in case it doesn't get enough funds it can still be used for something in that direction.Rock_TBT wrote:Would be more convincing for Ubisoft to make a sequel to Rayman 3, if there was a fund-raiser, where fans donate money for this petition, which is, if Ubisoft agrees, then sent to Ubisoft for creating the game?

I don't really think a big company would do a such thing though. It's different when it comes to smaller companies like Cyan (The creators of the Myst-series) who funded their new game by doing a kickstarter. (Obduction)
But on the other hand, donations as you mention would be quite cool too and show them even more how much we want the game.
Another thing that makes me confused is that the Rabbids is still something Ubisoft try to use in games, like that would sell more than a Rayman game would? Does anyone know how much the Rabbids games sold compared to the Rayman games?
Re: Sequel to Rayman 3 (Petition for Rayman 4)
I don´t know the numbers, but considering that it has spawned multiple sequel, I think Rabbids must have been successful. The reason I played RRV, was because it had Rayman in it.Jocke155 wrote:A great idea would be if Ubisoft themselves made their own "Kickstarter"-like campaign where the money can go to the funding of a new Rayman 3 sequel, but in case it doesn't get enough funds it can still be used for something in that direction.Rock_TBT wrote:Would be more convincing for Ubisoft to make a sequel to Rayman 3, if there was a fund-raiser, where fans donate money for this petition, which is, if Ubisoft agrees, then sent to Ubisoft for creating the game?

Well, if someone like Hunchman could create a Paypal account, then those who are interested could donate money. Does anyone know how much money it cost to produce Rayman 3? One thing that would be great is if the entire RaymanPC community was able to play the game.

Re: Sequel to Rayman 3 (Petition for Rayman 4)
Maybe if Ubisoft made a good game with Rayman 4, they could bring back the old 3D platformers days and make it new again.
I mean, you got Super Mario Odyssey and the Crash triligy. If you put rayman 4 next to those other games 3D platformers will see a huge boost in popularity because these games will be on curent hardware instead of being looked at as old classics. If Activision is actually doing something the fans want with Crash, Ubisoft should too. With as many 3D physical platformer games coming to the PS4 and Switch there has never been a better time in the last few years for a Rayman 4. Ubisoft is going to have to market rayman as a character and make his character traits like Rayman 2 and 3. If they make him like in Origins and legends (as good as those games are.) I don't see the game being as suscesful as it could be.

Re: Sequel to Rayman 3 (Petition for Rayman 4)
Even a remaster of a 3D Rayman game would be nice too, why not a Rayman in VR? There's endless possibilities with today's hardware and as Raymanarenaps2 mention, I think Ubisoft is missing an opportunity here.

Re: Sequel to Rayman 3 (Petition for Rayman 4)
I did some more thinking about why Ubisoft would not make a Rayman 4. They might be afraid of confusing the Rabids and Rayman with Rayman 4, because you know how they had the Rabids known for the minigames. (that Mario spin off is a spin off btw, so I guess that's okay with Ubisoft.) So, what they could do instead of recreating the older game that could, they could make a completly new Rayman game concept and call that Rayman 4. Just because Rayman 4 was a canceled prototype name doesn't mean it can't be used for a future title.

Re: Sequel to Rayman 3 (Petition for Rayman 4)
I think a lot of the people hoping for a "Rayman 4" wanted them to come up with something new all right, not to dig up the abandoned concepts.

Re: Sequel to Rayman 3 (Petition for Rayman 4)
No rayman at E3 not even the switch edition , let's be honest ubisoft want to kill rayman and that Mario X rabbits crossover is a proof that they don't care for rayaman anymore , but I'm not even surprised , I expected nothing from ubisoft this year and I got nothing .
I signed the petition but I don't believe ubisoft will even pretend to care , worse thing about this is that ubisoft could win tons of money by making a new rayman in 3D but no they're still stuck with raving rabbids like a curse they can't undone , curse that started when they decided that rayman would not appear in the recent rabbids game , another proof that show they don't care about rayman anymore

Re: Sequel to Rayman 3 (Petition for Rayman 4)
Yeah you're probably right. But I'm very curious on what the response would be if we ever reach 100. All previous Rayman petitions that exist on change.org didn't make it and are now closed, so it would be the first petition from change that actually make it.MagicalPlatypus7 wrote:No rayman at E3 not even the switch edition , let's be honest ubisoft want to kill rayman and that Mario X rabbits crossover is a proof that they don't care for rayaman anymore , but I'm not even surprised , I expected nothing from ubisoft this year and I got nothing .

I mean the response could either be something positive, nothing at all or who knows Still just very curious.

Re: Sequel to Rayman 3 (Petition for Rayman 4)
It's worth trying , who know ubisoft might noticed that their still a Rayman community and maybe even allow a new rayman but the probability is low

Re: Sequel to Rayman 3 (Petition for Rayman 4)
Rayman 3 made just barely 10'000 dollars whereas Rahman Raving Rabbids made 10 billion dollars, that should give some insight on why there have been so many Rabbids games and no more Rayman 3s.Jocke155 wrote:Another thing that makes me confused is that the Rabbids is still something Ubisoft try to use in games, like that would sell more than a Rayman game would?

Agreed, especially with clear continuation like "See you in Rayman 4!" it would be strange to separate the game from the trilogy. Personally, I think Mr. Dark, Razorbeard, Andre and Marta Banus should all return in this game - the 4th Rayman being a celebration of the four big Rayman villains.Raymanarenaps2 wrote:Just because Rayman 4 was a canceled prototype name doesn't mean it can't be used for a future title.

Re: Sequel to Rayman 3 (Petition for Rayman 4)
"That's exactly what we need" for a Rayman 4. If we can get a billion people into the Rayman games then maybe Ubisoft will give in. Numbers mean more than fans these days with these big corperations. Look at what happened with last years cod. Activision did everything except what everyone wanted with it. Since Activision has a large fanbase if the fans demand a classic call of duty they are going to get a classic call of duty like they are next novmember because they have a huge fanbase. Rayman doesn't have that big of a fanbase so Ubisoft doesn't think it's worth the investment.MagicalPlatypus7 wrote:A large Rayman community

Re: Sequel to Rayman 3 (Petition for Rayman 4)
I don't hate rabbids but as soon as they started to replace rayman it made feel very disappointed , especially with this Rabbids mario crossover , I know a lot of people myself including who prefer rayman over the rabbids, and I know no one who prefer rabbids over rayman , so why throwing rayman at the airlock , does the rabbids sell that well compare to rayman ?
I bet they would make so much money by releasing a new rayman in 3D but no... I wish I knew why we don't have any new content anymore (beside rayman adventures)
plus a crossover Mario X Rayman would probably look super cool , far better than with the rabbids but ubisoft doesn't seem to care in the slightest , they didn't even showed anything about rayman legends definitive edition a the E3 , they just put a message on twitter who looked like : "yeah rayman definitive edition is still happening but who care ?"
In my opinion they should stop the rabbids crap and get back to rayman for real , but sadly I'm not ubisoft director

Re: Sequel to Rayman 3 (Petition for Rayman 4)
Ubisoft definently isn't replacing Rayman with the Rabids. It's not as bad as it was in 2007,2008 and 2009, they made more Rayman then Rabids in recent years.
Rayman makes more sense than the Rabids to have in a crossover title beside Mario, what were they thinking at Ubisoft. That's like saying lets put Metal gear and Kirby in a rpg crossover. It's not really to that extent but you see where i'm coming from. If it was Rayman next to Mario all the Mario fans would see Rayman and buy his older titles to see what he is about.
